We operate a computerised repeat prescription system. If your doctor agrees this is appropriate for you, a repeat prescription may be ordered

IMPORTANT CHANGES : -

From 1.3.18 onwards, your GP practice will only accept medication requests from you or your carer(apart from in exceptional circumstances by arrangement).Ifyourmedicine is currently ordered for you by your pharmacy or a dispensing company, you will now need to order it yourself directly from your GP practice.

Why is this happening?

It is important that you only order the medication that you currently require. Medicines that are not takenand are therefore wasted cost the NHSapproximately £300 million every year. Locally, across Chorley and South Ribble and Greater Preston CCGs up to £6 million could be saved by reducing medicines waste.

From 01.08.18 onwards we will no longer be operating a telephone prescription request service

Alternately you can order your prescription by paper request or sign up to Patient Access for online ordering.

PLEASE NOTE THAT IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO CONTACT THE PHARMACY YOU HAVE SELECTED AND ASK THEM TO COLLECT YOUR PRESCRIPTION FROM THE SURGERY

Thank you for your prescription request. This will be processed and ready for collection at the Surgery by yourself or your representative in 48hrs (excluding weekends and Bank Holidays). PLEASE REMEMBER IT IS NOW YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO TELL THE CHEMIST IF YOU WISH THEM TO COLLECT YOUR PRESCRIPTION.
